New Ribbon UI and terminology
New ribbon design
The new UI for the SMARTUpdate ribbon is a first step of a mayor overhaul and re-design of the software.
It provides the following functions:
- Administration (only available in Admin mode)
- Options — Opens the Options dialog (previously ‘Configuration’; adapted to Creo terminology)
- Configuration— Opens the Configuration dialog to manage the configuration (previously ‘Administration’)
- Output Orientation Matrix — exports the orientation matrix of the current model in the working directory
- Admin Guide — Opens the Admin guide in the internal browser window
Note
- Check & Update
- Select Context — You may Select the context to be used for the next checked object (previously ‘Set default configuration’)
- Check & Update — Checks the current object and displays the check result window. From there you can start the Update process (previously ‘Check model’)
- Direct Update — Directly updates the current model without displaying the check result window (previously ‘Update model’)
- Batch Update — Opens the dialog to check and update objects via batch mode
- Info
- User Guide — opens the user documentation in the internal browser
- About SMARTUpdate — shows copyright and version information
Context replaces Domain
For harmonization purposes, the term ‘Domain’ was replaced by the new name ‘Context’
